Climate Smart Farming

Nitrogen fertilizers are vital for crop production but also emit greenhouse gases (GHG) during their application.  Treating these fertilizers with our nitrification inhibitors optimize yield and reduce GHG emissions up to 30% per ton of crop.

Herbicide use promotes conservation and no-till farming practices leading to improved soil and air quality and water availability. Our herbicides allow for minimum tillage with up to 10% fewer CO₂ emissions per ton of crop produced. 

Our scientists are developing resilient hybrids across wide range of environments. Significant yield increase and improved grain quality for enhanced profitability means farmers can produce more on the same land, thereby protecting biodiversity.

InVigor hybrid canola’s patented Pod Shatter Reduction technology can provide higher yield protection under severe weather conditions. Straight-cutting can result in one less pass across the field which results in less fuel, equipment and labour costs. 

How to make biodiversity relevant to business

Farmers get attractive rewards for setting up two skylark plots per hectare on their winter wheat fields. Sustainable approach to agriculture that combines high productivity and the conservation of natural resources.

Digital farming solution for field zone-specific crop management strategy – from seeding right through to harvesting.  Optimized crop protection through Advanced Agronomic Decision-making engine (ADE). Currently more than four million hectares managed with xarvio FIELD MANAGER worldwide.

Sustainability assessment can help farmers address environmental challenges like climate change or loss of biodiversity while balancing business interests and social responsibility. One example of how we support farmers is by measuring the carbon footprint of their farming operation with AgBalance.  

An inoculant effectively delivers a beneficial microbe to the seed or soil to increase the nitrogen availability and health of a crop. They are a powerful ally for legume growers worldwide.
